Estos recursos gráficos sobre vacunas que pueden ser editados en varios idiomas, le ayudarán a llevar a las comunidades de refugiados, inmigrantes y emigrantes información importante sobre cómo vacunarse y las medidas de seguridad que se deben tomar después de la vacunación. Estos volantes coloridos, en inglés, español y criollo haitiano, ofrecen diferentes opciones no solo a los estados específicos de Maryland, Virginia y Delaware, sino también a otros estados para que, con las versiones editables, coloquen su propia información, como los logotipos de la vacuna del estado y de la organización, el sitio de Internet y el teléfono para obtener información sobre la vacunación. Además, MCN ha creado un video sencillo que acompaña dichos volantes, con instrucciones sobre cómo editarlos (véase más arriba). Los diseños originales de este nuevo recurso los creó un miembro del personal de East Coast Migrant Head Start Project, hija de un trabajador agrícola y que asistió a los centros de East Coast Migrant Head Start Project.

¡Muestre su apoyo a la vacuna en su comunidad! La campaña de MCN #YoMeLaPuse ofrece cinco carteles bellamente diseñados que muestran a personas de diversas edades después de su vacunación. Estos carteles están disponibles para ser descargados e impresos. El sexto cartel se puede personalizar, lo que permite a las comunidades incluir una foto de un líder religioso de la localidad, o de los proveedores de servicios de salud de la comunidad, u otro líder comunitario que esté orgulloso de haberse vacunado. Los carteles van acompañados de un breve vídeo en español, que puede mostrarse en los actos comunitarios y en las salas de espera.
A continuación encontrará plantillas para crear sus propios carteles.

Migrant women face significant disparities with an additional layer of complexity and require different intervention strategies. Among them are reproductive health, pregnancy and childbirth, sexual and intimate partner violence, and cancers that disproportionately affect women, including cervical and breast cancer. Women often face environmental and occupational health exposures both in the home and in the workplace that heighten health risks. This session will provide a follow-up to the July 2013 presentation “Women’s Health at the Intersection of Poverty and Migration” that was part of our Clinician Orientation to Migration Health webinar series. During this presentation Candace Kugel, FNP, CNM, and Meagan Danielson, CNM will discuss quality improvement and health care services for migrant women. The HRSA clinical performance measures related to women’s health will be reviewed as well as resources and best practices for improving the health of migrant women.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe strategies to address clinical core measures that relate to women’s health .
- Discuss case studies that assist participants in understanding how creative collaborations and models of care can improve health outcomes for migrant women.
- Participants will be able to access clinical resources for working with female migrant patients.

Other Women’s Health Resources for Migrant/Immigrant Care

Historically, the field of women's health consisted of issues surrounding reproduction and childbirth. However, increasingly, the health care community has come to see women as a distinct patient group that has unique health concerns over a lifetime. Migrant farmworker women experience unique risks during pregnancy and otherwise, due to the physical demands, environmental exposures and other circumstances of their lives. The provision of healthcare services to migrant women presents distinctive challenges for both clinicians and organizations. MCN’s Candace Kugel, CRNP, CNM, and Melissa Bailey, Executive Director of NC FIELD, Inc., both with many years of experience with this population will discuss the problems, solutions and rewards of working with migrant women, through case illustrations and review of resources.
After taking this webinar:
- Participants will be able to identify at least 2 health risks unique to women farmworkers and the impact of those challenges on work, nutrition and health.
- Participants will be able to describe environmental and occupational health exposures relevant to farmworker women of reproductive age.
- Case studies will assist participants in understanding how creative collaborations and models of care can improve health outcomes for migrant women.
- Participants will be able to access clinical resources for working with female migrant patients.

Reducing exposure to toxic environmental agents is a critical area of intervention for obstetricians, gynecologists, and other reproductive health care professionals. The evidence that links exposure to toxic environmental agents and adverse reproductive and developmental health outcomes is sufficiently robust, and the American College of Ostetricicans and Gynecologists and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine join leading scientists and other clinical practitioners in calling for timely action to identify and reduce exposure to toxic envrionmental agents while addressing the consequences of such exposure.

Introduction
In August of 2005, the North Carolina Division of Public Health, Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology Branch (OEEB) was notified that three women who had worked on farms in North Carolina owned by Ag-Mart had delivered infants with birth defects. All three births took place in Florida where the women also worked on Ag-Mart farms and lived near each other. This report summarizes the OEEB’s investigation and assessment of the pesticide exposures likely experienced by these women while in North Carolina.

Latinas are experiencing high rates of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), teen childbearing, and unintended pregnancy. This report presents nine recommendations for sexual and reproductive health clinics and providers to increase young Latina women’s access to reproductive health services. The recommendations are based on findings derived from 14 focus groups conducted by Child Trends in three cities in the United States with young adult Latina women (18-24 years-old) and with reproductive health care and social service providers serving large Latina populations.
